working on becoming a restless older person. Summer 2020: taking an interest in reWilding, and Scotland's Slavery history (not that the two are linked, at all)
In town for some shopping (long story) & just by the bus stop to return was #Pep&Fodder. So for #OldTimesSake I went in for a #FlatWhite@mrhyde
A trip into town on the 26 bus shd be such a mundane journey. But it isn’t, as I haven’t been for simply ages (can’t remember when the last one was) and am wholly out of practice
Have been trying to reauthorise Echofon for Twitter for some days, but still getting a msg about an internal Twitter server error - anyone else similarly stuck?
@elin_f_jones Thank you *so much* for creating this; I am looking out at the sea as I type, also your narrative evokes vivid memories of touching upon related issues in my working time (tho in the NHS/care/peer-support worlds!)
@EllaRove @EarlofSteve Thanks K; really Good Luck with your next Adventure. Thoroughly appreciate the mix of emotions likely involved (nothing is ever alone or the other!). You will be brilliant!!
@EllaRove @EarlofSteve Practical Q, K: are you moving lock stock & barrel to Instagram? It’s just that I don’t have an acct there - I appreciate I may need to open one, so I can keep up with your new #Adventure!
@EllaRove This is Sublime (love the mix of Excitement and Terror!!) news K.
Am really admiring how it’s all going for you, and v best wishes for your next #Adventure!!
@rufflemuffin Good to hear this Sarah. I’m imagining that stepping in to a new direction, and away from one that may have been all-consuming, could shake anyone’s sense of themselves. But you need have no fear of imposter syndrome - good at whatever you embark upon!
@ManiraAhmad@M_YousafAhmad Thinking of you now, Anisa comes to mind too; I am imagining she also may have been shocked and upset. I know you will be alright in time - you are that sort of person after all. But perhaps she may need a little re-assuring - pls give her a hug - with your good arm of course!
@ManiraAhmad@M_YousafAhmad Dear Manira, the other day I gave our grass an autumn cut, and yes it is salutary to think how casually I cleared blocked grass from the mower - ‘There but for the grace of god go the rest of us’ etc. Thinking of you now, warmest best wishes that you will get better
@EllePats @ChildReporter @CHScotland Bless you Lisa, I don’t think I ever knew you’d been on a Panel. But now I do, it seems entirely typical. And admirable (in a humble sort of way :-)))
@_laurencurrie_ Pls pass on very best wishes to yr mum, Lauren - she was a real help (when it counted!). And keep lots of love, on the way, for yourself! Pxx
This is one of my favourite bags. Last month I took it on holiday to carry all my extra devices, batteries, charging cables, a box of LFTs. Today it was a tool bag, full of screwdrivers, pliers, & the like…
